Leaky Fuel Pressure Gauge

[GTJake]

I'm getting a fuel leak from my fuel pressure gauge on the shrader valve. It seems to be leaking from between the adapter and the gauge. It leaks enough so that there is a little puddle on my lower intake after a long drive. I have cleaned the threads with rubbing alcohol and reinstalled it multiple times, each time using white teflon sealant. Any way I can test it to see if either the gauge or adapter is faulty?

Thanks

Mine did the same thing, I just had to tighten the heck out of it for it to quit.

Did you put a bunch of thread sealant on it or just enough to coat the threads?

I used the teflon tape, about two or three times around.

Yup teflon tape will do just wrap it around tight a couple times.

Seems to have done the trick, thanks guys!
